If Swallow Ye Can't Words Poem by Aniruddha Pathak

If Swallow Ye Can't Words



If swallow you cannot an ill word
That curdles and turns up to be curd,
Growing acrid and sour
By every passing hour,
Spell it out sotto voce and unheard.
_____________________________________________________
Swallowing ill words has upset no stomach, advises ancient wisdom; but it may upset mental health. Beware then every time you open your mouth. If you find swallowing too hard, this limerick shows a better way.
